2214 welcome home
They were discussing and chatting in the study room. The faint warmth contrasted with the cold winter outside the window, which made the mood settle down involuntarily. However, one could not help but look out the window again and again. The expectation and anxiety were intertwined. Conflicting emotions, everyone can’t sit still.
Chris Evans' eyes lightly glanced at Renly. He was reading a book and seemed to be very immersed in it. He was not affected by what was about to happen today. However, he unexpectedly noticed that Renly seemed to be very engaged. I haven’t flipped through the pages for a long time, and I’m slightly in a daze..
Such a small accident made Chris stunned..
Chris suddenly realized something, a very important thing: Renly has always been Edith's most important relative, and Renly has always defended Edith's position. Edith is Renly's sister. , Renly is Edith’s younger brother, and the bond between them is the deepest..
Therefore, Renly is willing to confront him tit for tat for Edith, and at the same time, he is willing to extend an olive branch for Edith - even if his impulsiveness and impoliteness destroy their relationship, and even put all the responsibility on Renly. , and he never completely broke up with him.
He couldn't imagine the weight Renly was carrying, but he knew it wasn't that simple.
Taking a deep breath, Chris stood up and took steps towards Renly - he was still a little timid, Renly's strong aura could always make him confused, and it seemed that all his thoughts could be seen through with just one sight. ; But today, he did not hesitate at all, and came to Renly's side unswervingly, and then sat down next to Renly..
Renly raised his head and cast a glance at Chris, but the plain look in his eyes made Chris uncontrollably nervous and his mouth went dry..
Chris moved slightly to the side and opened some distance. It seemed that the physical space could relieve his tension slightly - but it didn't. He quietly changed his sitting posture and tried to find a comfortable position, but failed. Instead, he revealed his anxiety.
“I'm sorry." Chris didn't know how to speak, but he still spoke firmly. He could feel Renly's eyes falling on him, and his throat began to feel faintly itchy, "I'm sorry, I mean... ..." Chris paused for a moment to collect his thoughts..
Then, Chris turned sideways, facing Renly head-on, and mustered up the courage to meet Renly's gaze..
“I'm sorry, I shouldn't vent all my negative emotions to you. I'm worried about Edith, and you are also worried about Edith. We all hope that Edith can return safely, and we all hope that Edith can return home safely. Have happiness and most importantly, we all love Edith.”
Chris's expression was very, very serious. He thought Renly would interrupt him and then mock his words with a condescending look.：
“"Love", he used this word again, and used this as a theme to communicate with Renly. This seemed to be the most insignificant bargaining chip, but it was also the only bargaining chip he had..
But Wei Wei was a little surprised. Renly didn't interrupt him, nor did he have much expression. He just listened quietly. That kind of calmness made Chris faintly uneasy. Renly had such an ability, that calm and determined aura. Field can always make others feel flustered, even without words.
Chris's scalp was numb slightly, but he did not flinch. He continued to meet Renly's gaze, and spoke with concentration and seriousness..
“I put all the fault and responsibility on you, which is unfair to you and unfair to Edith, because I should know her character. After all, I was stuck in my own thoughts and couldn't get out of it, and then I Trying to attack everyone around me... I shouldn't be like this.”
The thoughts surging in his mind, but in the end he didn't know how to organize and express them. He had countless ideas, but he just squeezed out a few words. He couldn't even convince himself, so how could he convince Renly?？
“sorry.”
These are the only words that Chris can say, repeated over and over again, but no more meaning can be found; Chris tries hard to find the fluctuations in Renly's eyes, trying to judge Renly's thoughts and ideas, But he failed. He couldn't find anything in his calm eyes..
This makes Chris a little frustrated.
But he still didn't leave.
After a moment of silence, Renly's voice came over, "Don't be sorry, because that love is your only bargaining chip to continue fighting. Unless you want to give up.".”
“No, of course not! "Chris said with some urgency, because the sound was a bit loud, so Matthew also cast his eyes here, Chris became more and more nervous - just one Renly is already troublesome enough, if another Matthew is added , he might be unable to resist it..
Chris leaned forward slightly and expressed his thoughts eagerly, "I know that as long as I still love her, this worry and entanglement will never end, because this is her, and similarly, this is me. Between us The differences and our persistence are the most important. I don’t know how things should be resolved or how they will develop, but I know that I still want to fight and I still want to be by her side. Really Love should not only have sweetness and happiness, but also bitterness, pain, and suffering. We must learn to accept it..”
Renly watched Chris quietly. He finally understood Edith. She said that Chris taught her how to love..
Renly, Edith, including Arthur, not to mention Elf, they all don't know how to "love", because the Hall family does not teach this lesson, they all maintain it reservedly and indifferently His own private space, and then he carefully put on a mask to hide himself, but when love really came, he stumbled and stumbled, like a newborn baby, walking in confusion..
Renly was lucky. He met Rooney. Their thoughts and concepts had so many similarities that they naturally came together. But even so, it took them nearly two years to get each other. hands, this is definitely not an easy subject.
Now it seems that Edith was lucky to meet Chris - maybe he is clumsy, maybe he is selfish, but at the same time he is pure and true, with the enthusiasm and enthusiasm like a moth to a flame. Madness gives love a different light, attracting Edith.
For the first time, Renly began to think seriously, maybe Chris was the right person; however, Renly did not reveal his thoughts at all, because he didn't want Chris to get proud too early, and he was not sure what would happen next. What, what if Edith still decides to return to the front? So, can their relationship withstand repeated tests? What choice will Edith make?？
So, just "maybe"”.
Renly said calmly, "So, do you accept it?？”
Chris showed a wry smile and spread his hands, "I am still learning, but I think I will never be able to completely relax and worry about her. This is also a part of my life..”
Renly raised his eyebrows slightly, revealing a half-smiling look, which made Chris's cheeks heat up slightly - such a scene felt a bit strange, as if he was saying sweet words when "meeting the parents" , ended up being caught, and then the atmosphere became awkward..
Chris secretly looked at the look in Renly's eyes, trying to detect the emotions in the corners of Renly's brows, but was interrupted by a sound before he could take a closer look..
“Coming.”
Chris stood up suddenly, and then realized that Renly was beside him. His action was too sudden and rude, and then he fell down again. The transition between standing and sitting made him feel uncomfortable. The ups and downs of emotions were vividly displayed, making Chris more and more embarrassed..
But now, Chris has no time to worry about Renly. His mind is completely filled with Edith. On the one hand, he is angry about her adventure, on the other hand, he is happy for her return; on the other hand, he suppresses his longing. , on the other hand, he was looking forward to solving the problem... Those contradictory and entangled emotions collided and exploded, so that he didn't know what to do, and he just hesitated back and forth in place..
Chris didn't even notice: he was the only one standing up, and everyone else seemed very "calm", which also made him stand out from the crowd..
Then, Chris couldn't hold it back anymore and strode out of the study and walked towards the entrance. However, he stopped at the door because of his timidity. Then, Phillip opened the door. , Edith’s figure appeared in front of her.
In three steps, Chris rushed forward and hugged Edith fiercely. Thousands of words were stuck in his throat, and he couldn't even make a sound. , let alone words, he could only tighten his arms and tighten them again. The agitated emotions made him extremely embarrassed..
“Edith Hall, you've made me regret it once, don't make me regret it a second time. I don't want to lose you. God damn it, do you understand?？”
Chris's choked voice buzzed in his chest, and then he heard Edith's familiar voice with a slight smile, "I'm going to be out of breath.".”
she always does.
That light smile with a hint of relaxation seems to have not changed.
Chris hurriedly let go of Edith and tried to get out of the way, but he couldn't. But in the end, he took a small step back to make room for Edith to enter the room - that simple step One step is like going from hell to heaven, extremely difficult.
Then you can see Edith raising her right hand, looking over Chris' shoulder, waving gently and saying hello, "Hey, I'm back..”
Following Edith's line of sight, Renly stood tall and straight at the door of the study, gently nodding his head, "Welcome home..”
